CAPPARELLI-BUGIELSKI-LYONS,JOSEPH-BURKE-DART, ACEVEDO, FRITCHEY, HASSERT, MCAULIFFE, SAVIANO, WOJCIK, CROTTY AND OSMOND. (MADIGAN,L-HAWKINSON-DEMUZIO-DUDYCZ-VIVERITO) 720 ILCS 5/12-2 from Ch. 38, par. 12-2 Amends the Criminal Code of 1961. Provides that aggravated assault committed against a person known to be an emergency medical technician, paramedic, ambulance driver, or other medical assistance or first aid personnel employed by a municipality or other governmental unit engaged in the execution of his or her official duties, or to prevent the performance of his or her official duties, or in retaliation for the performance of his or her official duties is a Class 4 felony (rather than a Class A misdemeanor) if a firearm is used in the commission of the assault. JUDICIAL NOTE (Illinois Courts Administrative Office) HB 4179 would neither increase nor decrease the number of judges needed in the State. FISCAL NOTE (Department of Corrections) HB 4179 would cause an increase of 3 inmates in the corrections population and would have a fiscal impact of $749,200. CORRECTIONAL NOTE (Department of Corrections) Same as DOC fiscal note. SENATE AMENDMENT NO. 1. Adds reference to: 720 ILCS 5/12-4 from Ch. 38, par. 12-4 Provides that it is aggravated assault or aggravated battery if the defendant knows that the individual assaulted or harmed is an employee of a police or sheriff's department engaged in the performance of his or her authorized duties as such employee. Eliminates from the statute defining the offense of aggravated assault, that the emergency medical technician or other medical assistance or first aid personnel must be employed by a municipality or other governmental unit. SENATE AMENDMENT NO. 2. Makes the same changes as Senate Amendment No. 1, except that it restores, as an element of the offense when committed against an emergency medical technician, ambulance driver or other medical assistance or first aid personnel, a requirement that the person knows that he or she is assaulting the victim while the victim is performing his or her official duties (rather than his or her duties), or that the person knows that he or she is assaulting the victim to prevent him or her from performing his or her official duties (rather than his or her duties) or in retaliation for the performance of his or her official duties (rather than his or her duties). GOVERNOR'S AMENDATORY VETO MESSAGE Recommends that references to "official" duties be restored in the aggravated assault statute in relation to the commission of an aggravated assault being committed against an emergency medical technician, ambulance driver, or other medical assistance or first aid personnel in the performance of his or her duties. In the aggravated battery statute, provides that the sheriff or police employee harmed must be engaged in the performance of his or her official duties rather than authorized duties. Adds a January 1, 2003 effective date.
